A review by leilaniann
Cheesemonger by Gordon Edgar

4.0

Even though I don't eat cheese I wanted to read this book because I have seen the author around a lot in the bay area over the years. I learned a lot about cheese and some co-op history of the bay I didn't know previously. Gordon worked hard to weave his personal politics into the book as well. I very much appreciated this since I mostly share them, and think it was a great way to reach people who are cheese enthusiasts but maybe not politically active. The only reason it gets 4 stars instead of 5 is because sometimes the transition between the two topics is a bit abrupt and disconnected. But overall, glad I finally read it. I am going to pass it on to my friend who is a cheesemaker!
